about

When Al Lowe created the soundtrack for Space Quest II, the music would first be arranged on the Roland MT-32, then downgraded for the Apple IIGS's inferior sound system (which, unlike the other versions of the game, actually used MIDI data).

Because"Welcome to Xenon Orbital Station 4 - version 1", "Falling" and "Unused BGM" were not carried over into MIDI format from the original game, for sake of completeness, I have created unofficial versions of these two missing jingles myself from the 1987 editions' data.

The soundtrack has been recorded directly from an authentic Roland MT-32 from the game's MIDI data. Due to the hardware limitations of the MT-32 causing polyphony problems, if necessary, each channel has been recorded independently and then merged into a single track. Therefore, no notation data is lost through polyphony limitations and the tracks may be heard at their fullest.

Since the original filenames and titles are unknown, all track titles have been created by myself and should not be considered official at this time.

The archival soundtrack series contains all known music from said title, including 1 second jingles, unused music, beta versions, and more.

Soundtrack and any bonus materials may not be re-distributed elsewhere without the express permission of Xeen Music.

$1.44 of each sale automatically goes to Activision Blizzard for music licensing.
